Just a little thought I thought I should be sure to share, as it’s something I wasn’t aware of until this morning.
If you load an object in Rails and load any of it’s relatives through acts_as_tree, and then destroy the object, it will take the relatives with it.
@person = Person.find :first
@person.children.each do |child|

I’m heading to RailsConf 2007 tomorrow evening, and I’m really excited to continue getting involved in Ruby on Rails. We’re going to be using it at work now, and I expect Ruby to become a pretty significant part of everything I do in the coming years. It’s a great feeling to be excited about this, […]
Brian’s e-book for O’Reilly, Rails on Windows, came out today and it looks to be a pretty good read. If you’re working in Rails and want to stick with Windows, definitely check this out. Brian’s presenting on working with Rails and Windows at RailsConf 2007 this weekend, and he’s been responsible for helping me with […]

I was reading Brandon Schauer’s post "And um, can we get that tomorrow?" over the course of the last few days and thinking about it. I save posts in Google Reader that I know I want to go back to soon, and this one has been sitting at the top of one folder for a […]
Just did some clean up of the blog - I ran it through XHTML validation, and there was a big mess, mostly from a few of the recent posts. WordPress, for whatever reason, was inserting double paragraph tags on all the posts. After a while I found an explanation saying to change a line in […]
Today’s been a learning day; I’ve been getting an hCard set up on the site, or at least trying to do so. I’m struggling with it a bit - Tails doesn’t recognize my hCards as being present, and when I use Operator my Address Book doesn’t want to import the contact, but Yahoo! has no […]
I’ve been working on a site in Rails for the past few weeks for my Dad’s company. It had been going really well, I was playing with some new approaches that I hadn’t tried before, I used RJS for the first time, and I was finally going to move him over to Rails from the […]
